that looks the perfect size for me and my doggies, will have to check out those
floor plans. Is that one of those small size pick ups?

Its really perfect for me and my boston terrier..... right now I am having the top bunk pulled out... I get to closterphobid.. and really dont need it... I will have it put back in if and when i ever sell it...
heres a site with the floor plan.

that pickup is a Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 which pulled it ok.. but I went to a Dodge Dakota V8 just for the extra power....

What a nice trailer. Where have you gone with it so far?

Too bad you had to take out the top bunk ... that's a lot of storage area.

I agree that the top bunk would be good storage space for light weight things like clothes and blankets, ...but claustrophobic rules.... if it makes you uncomfortable it has to go. That's a neat little rig,.... perfect for you and the pooch!

That's a cute trailer, Christine. Do you have plans to put something else where the bunk is? You could always put a tension rod there and hang more clothes. Our rv has 3 cabinets for hanging clothes, but they are short or we wear shirts that are too long, LOL. I got spoiled with our old rv, it had wardrobes long enough I could hang my pants on regular pant hangers and was even long enough to hang dresses when we had to live in it after the flood. I miss all that room.

What a great trailer, Christine. I almost took my bunk out to cut down on weight, but I love it for storage.

That is a cute little trailer. Instead of removing the bunk bed completely, I wonder if they could not just raise it bit. Raising it would just eliminate the necessary headroom for a person, not the increased storage space provided. It would also help with not bumping your head in the middle of the night :D Just a thought. Enjoy your camper. Linda

Very nice, Christine. The bunk bed doesn't flip up out of the way? Some RVs have that option.

That's what I need to bring along when I have company...the spare bedroom. You think I'm kidding! I bet I could find something used and small...the short bus could pull it :)

there is a small closet at the back of the trailer.. they are putting in a shelf and i will put up those light weight drawers for jeans, etd and the other for undies, socks etc. I dont really take to much with me anyways... I usually only go out for 3 nites at a time... then I am ready to go home..
I will of course keep the bunk and stuff to put back in.... i think raising it would be way to close to the ceiling and the side window is there anyways.. this remod will do fine for now.. the table goes out into a bed if i need be...
i dont wander to far.. just out to the coast most of the time... then head east to Ike Kinswa state park... I hope to hit another park Tiadinpam ( sp) which has 100 new sites!!

Very cute trailer Christine!

Mitch you amaze me, that tiny little trailer looks like what I need! Tina if I got one in time you could just hook me on behind the Short Bus for the GTG!
